125 mile round trip
On the road by 9:10 with June to go to Independence Park in Philadelphia. little traffic and one hour drive parked in street. first stop Liberty Bell and found my camera Minolta wasn’t working. then to Independence Hall. thrilled to run my hand down the railing Jefferson, Washington, Franklin, Madison etc. used going to second floor. Visited building where first Congress met. Had lunch at reconstructed City Tavern- pasty. Saw film Independence at Visitors Center, marveled at portraits in Second National Bank building, went to Delaware River. Had ice cream soda at Hillary’s- home about 5:30. Supper at Denny’s.
